Hello stamping friends! Life has been quite the whirlwind for the last couple of weeks! I sent my sweet daughter off on a mission yesterday

I’m going to miss her so much! I will see her again in 18 months❤️

With that – in coming in a day late on the new challenge over at Double Trouble. But it’s everyone’s favorite – Something Anything Everything by Thing 1!

Thing 3 wants to see some musical notes

I used a combination of different Lawn Fawn sets to bring this sweet lovey card together

I used “A birdie told me”, “Home sweet Home”, and “Lovin Breakfast”. I love how all Lawn Fawn stamp sets easily go together to make any cards!! With all this love on my card, I’m entering it there in the Lawn Fawn challenge too

I’m definitely sending this card to my daughter as her first piece of mail on her mission!

Thing 2 says to go look at our previous partners and play along there, too! I chose Festive Friday. Look at this fun list

My card is mini slimline and includes a love sentiment (3 actually! ❤️), hearts, and birds. So I actually included 4 from the list. So fun!

Thank you for swinging by today! We hope to see you play along with this fun challenge and I’m excited to see the projects in the linkup!

I made a card today using a different-for-me style, white on white!

I always love to be challenged with a new idea that I don’t normally use in stamping. This one definitely did that!

I used dies by Spellbinders to bring this card together. No stamping! Most of the products were actually in my Spellbinders advent box that I got before Christmas. So I don’t have names for some of them. But here’s some pictures!

Then I used the arched frames dies as well as the Candlewick Rectangles for the outside frame

Of course I added just a hint of a very subtle blue and green shading to give a tiny hint of contrast. I love the way it turned out!

Head to the Simon Says Stamp IG challenge page to play along! It’s my first time joining but won’t be my last! I love to support and play along with card challenges of all kinds!

A new challenge starts today at Double Trouble!

Lots of fun little challenges and twists in this one!

First – Thing one would like to see stencils and/or embossing folders. I went with the embossing folder for the background of my card

Next – include a winter sports item from Thing 3. Walnut shell as a sled and an ice skate as one too! These little mice sure look like they are having fun! An option to try adding – a hat.

Their little hats are so cute, yes?! I added snow texture paste to the hills to give a realistic snow look

If you completed both of those things, you can also enter your card in the Farm Quest challenge!

These cute little squeak squeaks are from Your Next Stamp

Thank you for stopping by to see my card! I’m excited to see your fun creations in our gallery.

I’m back with another card using the Lovely Layers Winter Birds dies by Honeybee.

I absolutely love looking out my bedroom window where the cardinals come to enjoy some bird seed! They are such pretty birds. I love how these dies have all the details of them in the layers

I blended each layer with different shades of red for dimension and depth. My idea for design came from the mood board at the Four Seasons challenge. I love the bird, the snow, the branches and snowflakes!

In addition to the Winter Birds dies, I also used the Seasonal Frame and Layering Snowflakes, and Winter Greenery dies – all by Honeybee Stamps. And all new to me for my birthday last month!!

I got lots of new goodies for my birthday that I am excited to use. But when I saw the challenge at Time Out with the prompt of “New” – I knew I wanted to use these new dies first to play along

I love the way that all these different die sets coordinate so well to bring this pretty card together! The blending in the background is Iced Spruce and Stormy Sky. I love the soft wintery look it gives

Thank you for stopping by to see my sweet cardinal in the window card!

See y’all again soon!

I am so excited that I got to play with some birthday goodies I got a month ago! I am so in love with this die set called Lovely Layers Winter Birds

I was inspired by the color challenge at TGIF for my design

I love the gold, silver, and black combo with this sweet bird

At Simon Says Stamp, the Monday challenge is “A new start” using Brutus Monroe products. So I pulled out my embossing powders for that. And this is a very January- weather-type card to start this new year!

I love this set so much, I have another beautiful card to share tomorrow that I made for a couple other challenges! Be sure to come back and visit to see that one too.

Thanks for stopping by! Have a wonderful week!

I hope that this year is full of lots of stamping!! I feel like my 2023 had very minimal stamping time for me. But it was a full year of many things with my big family and I’ve loved it.

Let’s get right back to a fun challenge with Double Trouble!

Thing 1 wants to see the background personalities. Will it be bold and bright? Or calm and soft? I chose calm and soft

I used Catherine Pooler stamps and dies for my card. I love this background die!

Thing 3 wants to see you use the sketch from Try a Sketch on Tuesday

I adapted the sketch a little bit. I made the back piece sit as a square orientation instead of diamond. And I made the top piece more long, rather than square. I also moved the sentiment up onto the shapes. I love shifting a sketch up to fit a design!

We would love for you to play along with us! Head to Double Trouble for more details and to link up your card.

Have a wonderful first day of 2024!!

Hello stamping friends! I love this gorgeous stamp set from Close to my Heart. And the large main image is so pretty! So what would you say? Is it a Snowflake or a flower?

We’ll call it a Snowflake flower ❄️ is made from stamping and embossing the image in white on vellum. I then colored it from behind.

This card is for the new challenge up at Double Trouble

Thing 1 wants to see dies! I used lots on my card. The Snowflake flower is fussy cut, but everything else is dies – the arches, the background pattern, the edges, and the center snowflakes

Thing 3 is saying “wrap it up!” Let’s see bows, ribbons, twine, washi, etc. I used pretty silver ribbon to top my panel

Thing 2 has us partnering with the Use Your Stuff “wrap it up” challenge. So, if you use Thing 3’s twist, be sure to share over there too

Thanks for stopping by today! Can’t wait to see all the creations in the gallery!

Hello! I saw this color challenge over at Color Dare and loved how natural the colors were

I’ve been loving the Country Road die collection by Spellbinders and immediately thought of it for my card idea

It was so easy to use all those beautiful earthy colors in the challenge palette!

Thanks for stopping by!

Hi everyone! I’m so excited that it’s Thanksgiving week! Let’s start it off with a new challenge at Double Trouble

Thing 1 wants to see stitching

I used lots of stitching dies! The background plate and the cross stitch border dies are by Kat Scrappiness. The stitched edge circle and rectangle is by Simon Says Stamp

I thought it would be fun, with the stitching theme, to also use a clothing item. So I used this cute dress and sentiment from Simon Says Stamp

Thing 3 says to use the Tuesday Morning sketch

This sketch looked like a mini slim size to me, so that inspired the size and design. I flipped it to be vertical, and made the centerpiece a circle. I the long piece down the side is my ribbon, the short piece is my sentiment. Was fun to play with this and be creative with the sketch pieces

Pull out all your stitching products and play along! If you use that sketch too, be sure to link up with Tuesday Morning!

Happy stamping😊

I had to jump in on this fun challenge with Coffee Lover’s one more time before it’s over!

What a super fun challenge to take part in! I don’t drink coffee, but we are big fans of hot cocoa, so it’s fun to make cute cards to stick on some cocoa packets to give to a friend. Today’s card is just that!

I used the cute Gift Card To Go die by Catherine Pooler for that main piece. The background is her Petal Connection cover plate adds good detail!

I was inspired to add holly because of this other fun challenge over at Caffeinated Christmas and I love it!

I used the cute holly from the Stocking Stuffers set, also by CP

I love how there’s a direct focus on this challenge. I’m seeing so many mugs and cute cups in my stamps and dies now! Not all of them got a turn this time. But it’s been so fun playing along!
